I love the David and Goliath analogy. hehehe
I suspect the signatures are forgeries too.
Look at the top arm of the "K" in Killian for the known vs. the SeeBS versions:
http://shapeofdays.typepad.com/
In the known versions, just study the capital K features:
- The upper arms are convex up or straight
- Have a forward hook (convex up) a the end in most cases which complements the arch bow of the main upper arm.
- The lower arm attachment is orthogonal to the top arm
- the lower arm is created by a separate pen stroke
- the lower arm is a prominent element that the signer had pride in making.
The 3 CBS documents do not follow these patterns:
- The upper arm bow is convex down, a hammering descrepancy.
- The hook on the upper arm is backward, another hammering descrepancy, but which also complements the descrepancy of the upper arm bow!
- The lower arm is a vestigial element, in all 3 versions, not showing the rich, bold, pride of the signer in the authenticated versions.

Wowee wow wow!!!
WOW!!!
(and a small child said the emperor has not clothes...)
Excellent!
Soon the world will know what "Freeped" means!
It's good to be da king!!
I recall the lack of exposure from the MSM that Free Republic got at the March for Justice, 10-31-98.
EAGLES UP!
Thank you again for bringing Free Republic to where it is today. We have the smartest, funniest, creative and most patriotic Americans right here!
If I could figure out how to post the grapic of the Eagle with the red & white stipes in the background with the phrase "Free Republic - Don't piss us off!" I would!
Keep pushing, investigating and instructing the mass media on how it's done! I am damn proud to be associated with you people!
I still can't believe that Rather has chosen this hill to die on. And die he will.
BRAVO.......BUMP
Here's to all of you!
The Eagles are soaring!
And the rest, as they say, is history.
GREAT JOB GUYS AND GALS!!!
BTTT
Awesome!
I am proud of us all.
They forgot to say that Freeper Woofie put in his two cents worth
FReepers rule!
And now the whole world knows it.
Thanks, Jim, for this wonderful All-American website!
This criticism proved easy to debunk. Simply obtain a similar weapon and have some folks try to duplicate what was ascribed to Oswald. Many were able to do so and the criticism was laid to rest.
We have a similar situation here. If Buckhead had simply said he thought the docs were forged using a word processing package, the criticism would have found little audience and rightfully so. But he went further and actually produced a document so indistinguishable from the CBS doc that the text could still be read when overlaid. This proved beyond a reasonable doubt that the documents could have been produced by the method Buckhead described.
It is now up to those who challenge the Word genesis for the documents to describe how they were produced using equipment available at the time. It's a simple task really -- make and model of the typewriter, list of special features, whatever, then how to insert the paper and strike the keys. That CBS has not done so strongly indicates they can't. That none of the MSM's useful idiots has done so strongly indicates they can't.
Only one side has a verifiable description for how those documents were produced. That side shows they were forged.
This is not worth starting yet another thread, but the Washington DC local CBS affiliate show just played "Inside Washington" and addressed this story. That is, they addressed the National Guard "controversy."
Did President Bush have preference getting in? Fulfill his obligations?
Moderator said Globe & AP said no, he did not meet obligation.
Screechy liberal female Nina Totenberg said No, and he probably did not fulfill his obligation, but she doesn't care -- but it is an issue because the SwiftVets have questioned the service of a genuine war hero.
Krauthammer then said Pres Bush may have missed a couple of drills but that is not a scandal. He said what IS a scandal is CBS using false documents that can only be produced by a modern word processor.
He was then cut off and the next panelist went off on a tangent about Kerry needing to get back on target.
Remember this was on a CBS station.
